This is the number of connections that are allowed to be made for a web page in IE (its also used by the foundation classes). Think of it like this, you load a web page that has 30 images on it. Each one of those images (style sheets, java script files, etc) all need a separate connection to download. The default used to be 2, meaning you would download two images, then two more, then two more... and so on. They changed the default value over the years to 4... whooo hoo, now you download 4 at a time. Changing this value to 10 (decimal) means you can download 10 items at once from the same site. So a site that has 30 images would download in about 3 sets instead of 7-8 with a setting of 4.

Thanks,

Is that a binary or decimal # ? (dword: 00000010)
This value is actually a hexadecimal value. The "dword" tells your registry that this is a DoubleWord which is Hex. The value above is equivalent to 16 in decimal which we all understand...

dword:00000010 = 16 Check it out with PHM Regedit, enter the value, then switch between Decimal and Hex.

Edit: Probably an easy way to tell is...

If you see a edit with brackets around the key like:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Example]
"GPSMode"=dword:14

This is gonna be in HEX (Usually copied from inside a ROM)

If you see an edit without the brackets like:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Example
GPSMode=14

Then this value is most likely decimal...
